Pick the rules for your own affiliate program and I'll write a Claude Code prompt that builds it, plus a checklist for before you launch. I filled in the rules I use, so change anything that doesn't fit you.
What do you sell?
I'm assuming you take payments through Stripe, because that's what the prompt builds on.
What kind of product is it?
Commission
How much an affiliate earns on a sale they send you.
What percent?
Type a whole number from 1 to 90.
How long does it pay?
With a one-time product, this decides whether later purchases from the same buyer pay commission too.
Payout minimum
An affiliate's balance has to reach this before you pay them. Anything under it rolls to next month.
Pick a minimum
Cookie window
How long after someone clicks an affiliate's link a purchase still counts for that affiliate.
How many days?
Approval wait
A sale sits as pending this long before it counts, so a refund never turns into a payout. Match it to your refund window or go longer.
How long is the wait?
Buyer discount
What a buyer saves when they use an affiliate's code. A discount gives their audience a reason to use it.
Discount with the code
Type a whole number from 1 to 90.
Custom codes
Every affiliate gets a code when you approve them. Can they change it to something they like?

Payouts and who can join
How do you pay affiliates?
Who can join?
Your affiliate program prompt is ready.
Stub says:
Your Claude Code build prompt
Open Claude Code in a new folder and paste this in. It asks about your setup before it writes any code, builds in small steps you test as you go, and finishes with your launch checklist so Claude Code helps you work through it.
Before you launch
The same list is at the end of your prompt. It's here too so you can keep your own copy and tick things off. Work through it after the build and before a stranger signs up.
This is a starting point, not legal, tax or security advice. It can't promise your program is secure, legal or tax-ready. Have a lawyer or tax pro look over your terms and tax forms, and test everything yourself before real money moves.
Free to use, always. If it saved you some time, you can leave a tip.
